Quest Carbon Capture and Storage Project

Quest Carbon Capture and Storage Project is a proposal by Athabasca Oil Sands Project for a Carbon Capture and Storage Project with the Scotforad Upgrader oil sands project. The Government of Alberta states that the "project will integrate CCS technology at Shell Canada's Scotford oil sands upgrader, near Edmonton. The application of carbon capture and storage technology could capture up to 1.1 megatonnes of greenhouse gas emissions annually, a reduction of about 40 percent." (Athabasca Oil Sands Project is a joint venture of Shell Canada Energy (60%), Chevron Canada (20%) and Marathon Oil Sands L.P. (20 percent)).
